Flat Earth Rapper B.o.B. Says Show Me ‘The Curve’

Rapper B.o.B. is on a flat Earth mission and daring the world to show him “the curve” of the Earth if it is really round, CNN reports. He wants the issue settled once and for all — apparently unaware that most people believe it has been for centuries.

The entertainer is launching a GoFundMe campaign that seeks to capture proof that there is an actual curvature in the Earth, making it spherical and not like a cosmic pizza in the universe.

The Flat Earth Society — long the butt of jokes — is a coalition of sorts. For some, it’s just a lot of fun and games, but at the core of the group are ardent disciples who believe all the scientific evidence — from Galileo to the photos taken by the NASA astronauts — is a mountain of deceit. Flat Earthers are convinced that if the Earth really resembled a ball, we could all plainly see the curve from multiple viewing points.

B.o.B. knows the truth is out there and says he wants to “launch multiple satellites into space” that can then monitor the movement and shape of the Earth — even though that’s already been done.

In a video on his fundraising website, he introduces himself as “flat Earth B.o.B.” and tells potential donors, “I’m looking for the curve.”

To make it happen, the recording star is seeking support to raise $200,000 in blast-off funds to send his surveillance platform into space. He’s even dubbed his cosmic quest “Show BoB The Curve.”

As of Tuesday morning, the rapper had raised a total of $671.

If you count all their followers on Facebook and Twitter, the Flat Earth Society exceeds 100,000 names.

Just more of the same. Its like identifying as a democrat or republican… as if those are the only things a human can be.

I bet they think the world is only 6,000 years old, too.

Science fanboys are funny too. They act like common sense never happens.

Funny thing – science and common sense are intricately intertwined.

This moron is wasting his time and he is wasting everyone else’s time too. The reason this is such a waste of time is because no matter what proof or evidence you present to these people, they always claim that it’s fake or photoshopped or it’s some sort of hoax to prove them wrong.
Any photos of the earth showing the curve are “taken with a fisheye lens” or it’s CGI and none of these people will accept it as proof of their stupidity.
They will argue the most ridiculous false logic that makes no sense to any intelligent person. How do you prove to a stupid person that they are stupid? You really can’t.
It should be enough that keeping the “round earth theory” a secret from everyone would require a conspiracy that involves millions and millions of people and many, many industries would have to be faked, such as the entire space industry, including satellite companies, satellite communications, cell phone companies, and anything else that somehow involved space. The entire air travel industry would have to be in on it, considering that the further past the equator you travel, the bigger the discrepancy between a round earth map and a flat earth map you would have, and travel times would be grossly inaccurate.
But none of the glaring inconsistencies make any difference to these people because it’s all fake. That’s the basis of their entire argument.
Because they didn’t create the evidence themselves, it isn’t real. Anyone who does, suddenly becomes a “round earth shill” pushing the “round earth agenda”…for reasons.
I predict that B.O.B. will not end up being convinced that the earth is round, and neither will any of his followers. The only people who will be convinced of it are people who already know the earth is round.
BTW, if we were in fact living on a giant pizza shaped earth, wouldn’t the edge be curved anyway? After all, we are talking about a giant circle, aren’t we? A flat disc only looks flat when viewed directly from the side. So the fact that these flat earthers refuse to accept any photo showing a curve is ridiculous. And if they did see a curve, and they were to accept the photo as genuine, they would likely just claim it’s the edge of a flat circle anyway.
So no matter what, this is a waste of time.

The edges would be curved but since they would only curve horizontally and not vertically, it would look the same as it does now. Pretty much all flat surfaces look flat when your standing on them, assuming their big enough.
After all, we are talking about a giant circle, aren’t we? I don’t know. maybe it a cone or a curved disk.

I was talking about viewing it from space or from a high altitude, such is BOB’s plan. If you were to get high enough :-), you would be able to see the curve of the edge whether it’s a globe or a disc.
An ant on a big, round table will only see a flat surface. But if the ant crawled up the wall and looked down at the table, he would see the curve of the edge of the table.
It’s the same thing if an ant were on a giant ball. It might seem flat while he’s on it, but if he was farther away from the ball, he would be able to see the curve.
But this was just an afterthought. My main point was that B.O.B. and likely anyone who follows him, is not going to admit that anything proving the earth is round like a ball is real. They will say it’s fake, photoshopped, a fish eye lens, CGI, or any number of other things that don’t require admitting they are wrong.
And this doesn’t even begin to take into account the fact that the flat earth theory doesn’t accurately account for day and night, the seasons, the perspective of the sun and moon, the grossly inaccurate flight times there would be, the inability to see Polaris from south of the equator, the fact that you can take video of two distinct polar stars, north and south, although the south doesn’t have a star in the middle of the polar axis, the fact that every other planet, moon, and the sun are all also spherical, and a huge number of other things that also prove the earth is round.
By contrast, as far as the flat earth theory goes, there are at best a handful of things that make me go hmmm, but upon closer examination, they don’t hold water.

sitting on the dock of the bay
watching the ships sail away
as they disappear and did not fall
because the earth is round like a ball!
Hmm the rapper needs a vacation by the sea

Rather the Flat Earth Society is a joke.

and this is news because…..I am hoping it’s for the entertainment factor….

We need emoji buttons so I can laugh at some of the comments…

Very little of what I “know” is from actual first-hand experience. We are taught. We are told. We are shown pictures and globes. Some things make sense, others do not. Once you get past the money and the agendas, what is left is what is around you that comprises your life as you know it. Most so-called mathematical proofs on either side don’t add up. The theory of gravity makes no sense at all, unless helium is an anti-gravity gas. But to the point, in my world, one way or another, it doesn’t matter in the least. Ridiculing someone – or being ridiculed – profits me nada. I hope we all achieve our dreams. I know we won’t, but what the hell, I gotta go mow my real lawn.

I like the analogy of the bucket spinning about your head to keep the water in. But if Earth is a ball-shape, and not a bucket-shape, shouldn’t the bucket be a ball surrounded by water? Awfully difficult to keep much water on a ball, no matter how fast you spin it.

For anyone interested, check out Eric Dubay’s work.

Eric Dubay knows his shit. More people should check him out. At least hear and see what he has to say and show.

It is not Paranoia

Also HOW he says and shows it. He just feels genuine and he is not afraid to talk about things other so-called truthers won’t even mention. That’s what draws me to him and his work.

His book “Atlantean conspiracy” is absolutely incredible, is puts all the pieces together.
